October 30, 201410 yr The front page of the Sun tomorrow says it's an "instant elimination". I can't glean much info from the cover posted on DS forums but I assume it'll be like the flash vote from last year, only the consequence is instant elimination rather than having to face the sing-off the following day. I assume they have someone in mind to target here as I'm sure the producers will be aware of who has a bad voting pattern and is likely to end up at the bottom. It would be epic if it backfired (which it could I guess if someone has a really bad off night) and Jay was a shock elimination :lol: It'll very likely be Lola though I imagine, OTY have the rebound vote and I imagine people who like Stevi will be more likely to frantically vote quickly. I think Lola probably just mops up casual voters, including those who record it and watch it later or the next day and just think "she has a nice voice".
October 30, 201410 yr Flash vote on Saturday according to The Sun which means one act with the least votes will leave on Saturday and then normal sing off at Sunday. If this is it then it any acts on with the strictly clash etc are going to feel it i bet!
October 30, 201410 yr If this is it then it any acts on with the strictly clash etc are going to feel it i bet! Oh yeah there's that too! I can't think who they'll want to bus out of who's left, maybe either one of the boys to focus on Andrea or finally one of the overs (JAY PLEASE) :lol: Or perhaps OTY to focus on Stereo Kicks but they were second last week and they can't have them early again surely? They performed in the penultimate slot twice in a row though! This is my cynical side emerging :lol:
October 30, 201410 yr This will affect people without a rabbid fanbase greater. So the likes of Fleur, Lola & maybe Stevie are going to be at risk here. I guess whoever is on during the clash with strictly will be off though.

They performed in the penultimate slot twice in a row though! This is my cynical side emerging :lol: hahaha yeah i have seen the article i made out all the words aprt from one! I guess we will see tomorrow if i am right! SIMON Cowell held a pre-halloween showdown with all the x fcator acts to tell them they where 'horrendous' The mogul 55, also warned the spooked hopefuls, including Only The Young, the axe will .... on the worst one tomorrow night. A source said of their meeting 'They where Shell-Shocked.' Edited October 30, 201410 yr by JohnnyCartersBoy
October 31, 201410 yr http://www.itv.com/xfactor/news/fright-nig...imination-twist If Stevi doesn't go.... My ideal situation would be Stevi and Jay to leave but I can see it (unfortunately) being a combination of someone like Paul and Lola. Never know, will just see how the ordering goes and who gets the strictly slot!
October 31, 201410 yr Unless of course when they say flash vote they mean it and only open the lines after everyone has performed.
October 31, 201410 yr I think this year has definitely shown just how little Louis knows about this competition. Within the first 3 weeks all 4 of his acts have been in the bottom 2. He doesn't seem to have a clue about the vocal training and in general doesn't seem to care :lol: If this does continue next year, I suggest Simon scraps the whole panel (including himself) and brings in people who can actually sing. (I don't mind Mel, but I find 'our Chezza' very patronizing to be criticizing someones live singing when we all remember her mimed performances on practically every television show shes been on.) Although I do like Cheryl, just not on X Factor :lol:
October 31, 201410 yr Mel is just as bad as, if not worse than, Cheryl at singing :lol: I adore her though. Like Jay said a page or two ago though, I think she is just out of practice as its not what she does as her job anymore - there's not an excuse for Cheryl :lol: again, I still love her tbh. Also, omg apparently Fleur is singing Disturbia tomorrow *.* Slay, what a moment that could potentially be!
October 31, 201410 yr YAAAASSS FLEUR. All of her song choices have been so on point so far. I think she will have to do a slower song next week to mix it up a bit though maybe. Edited October 31, 201410 yr by Jack
October 31, 201410 yr Song choices have been revealed Boys Andrea Faustini Relight My Fire (by Take That) Jack Walton Bleeding Love (by Leona Lewis) Paul Akister Bat Out Of Hell (by Meatloaf) Girls Lauren Platt Dark Horse (by Katy Perry) Lola Saunders Crazy (by Gnarls Barkley) Groups Only The Young The Monster Mash (by Bobby Pickett) Stereo Kicks Everybody (by Backstreet Boys) Overs Ben Haenow Highway to Hell (by AC/DC) Fleur East Thriller (by Michael Jackson) Jay James Mad World (by Tears For Fears) Stevi Ritchie Music of The Night (from Phantom of The Opera)
October 31, 201410 yr So many WTF how are they Halloween songs in there. Once again no Things That Go Bump In The NIght.
October 31, 201410 yr Pretty uninspired song choices, Laurens song choice is I guess but it will only be made into yet another f***ing ballad.
October 31, 201410 yr GET IT LAUREN I also imagine this is the week Fleur will move into prime position to win it this week, I feel. They're definitely pushing her for the win, as I've already read whoever had Thriller supposedly has one of the biggest stage productions seen on the show.
October 31, 201410 yr Sorry but I don't see how Jack singing Bleeding Love will be anything other than painful. Please can he not turn it into an Ed Sheeran lite urban-y track? Him doing that every time is just as bad as people doing incessant ballad versions of songs tbh. Although if he doesn't change it, it will be about as good as when Lloyd Daniels sang it... Hideous choices for Paul and Andrea too, Mel is on her usual bad mentoring form this week! Ben's will just be karaoke I expect and I'm sure I'll fall asleep after 10 seconds of Jay's horrifically predictable song choice. I knew as soon as the theme was announced he'd sing that! Lauren doing Dark Horse (properly, if it isn't a ballad) could be a real moment, as could Fleur with Thriller but why such a clichéd song choice? :( She could have done Disturbia, or Black Cat by Janet Jackson! Lola's could be great too, as with Lauren I'd much prefer to do it in the original style. I kind of get the tenuous links with "dark" and "bleeding" to Halloween, but how on EARTH is Everybody a Halloween song? Is it just because the performance will be so awful and karaoke it will terrify us all? :lol:

October 31, 201410 yr looking forward to OTY concidering they have a video out of it anyway: r8f4YbXXJtU
October 31, 201410 yr Yeah, I think Only The Young will do really good seeing as it is a song they are comfortable with. Their version of it is really good imo.

Him doing that every time is just as bad as people doing incessant ballad versions of songs tbh. Although if he doesn't change it, it will be about as good as when Lloyd Daniels sang it... In all fairness, he's had two upbeat songs in a row that weren't anything like Ed Sheeran :P I'm not 100% on this song choice for him though, better not put him in trouble. :( Really looking forward to Fleur's performance with that song choice and what's been said about recreating the video! Lauren doing Dark Horse, pleeeeaaase can it not be slowed down. :(
